A Fast and Highly Efficient Protocol for Synthesis of Pyrrolo[2,3-d]isoxazoles and a New Series of Novel Benzyl Bis-pyrrolo[2,3-d]isoxazoles Using Task-Specific Ionic Liquids as Catalyst and Green Solvent
We report a mild, fast, highly efficient and eco-friendly protocol for the green synthesis of pyrrolo[2,3-d]isoxazoles and a new series of novel benzyl bis-pyrrolo[2,3-d]isoxazoles from nitro styrylisoxazoles in SnCl(2)-ionic liquid by reductive cyclization. These reactions were performed at ambient temperature which resulted in good yields in short reaction time, without requiring any organic solvent
